Motto: "Never doubt the awesomess."
Weapon: Energo-Sword
In the book "The Story of Marvel Studios: The Making of the Marvel Cinematic Universe",in one of the interviews,Jon Favreau,the director of Iron Man and actor for Happy Hogan,commented on how Transformers helped to shape the special effects of Iron Man:
Jon Favreau wrote:Seeing Transformers was very helpful because I saw how good ILM (Industrial Light & Magic) now was at doing hard surfaces.”
I was finally convinced that you can achieve photo-realism for certain materials. I was like, ‘Guys look, Transformers is making all this money and all it has things transforming. And we’re cutting around it. We’re cutting like Superman like he goes into a telephone booth, pulls his shirt open, and the next thing you know, he’s flying

He is refering to the scene where Tony suits up with Mark III for the first time.
The armor up scene:
